2018 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · EY18 AAK

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT in April 2026 with 62,449 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the recent failure in March 2026 just three miles prior for a damaged nearside rear tyre indicates that the owner responds to immediate safety-critical defects. Beyond this minor consumable issue, the vehicle has maintained a clean record for several years, suggesting that major mechanical or structural failures have been avoided. The mileage profile is consistent with an eight-year-old van, averaging approximately 7,800 miles per year. There is a noticeable increase in usage between March 2024 and April 2025, where the vehicle covered over 10,000 miles in a single year, compared to the much lower figures seen in its early life such as the 5100 miles between 2021 and 2022. This shift suggests the vehicle transitioned from light use to a more demanding commercial role, which typically accelerates the wear on heavy duty components like the suspension and braking system. A buyer should inspect the braking system specifically, as the April 2025 test flagged thin front brake pads at 52,299 miles. While the vehicle passed since, the remaining life of the pads and discs should be checked for uneven wear or thinning. Given the age and mileage of the Ducato, a physical inspection of the chassis for corrosion and the suspension bushes is essential, as the MOT record does not account for surface rust until it reaches a structural threshold. The previous wiper failure in 2022 was a minor item, but ensuring the wiper motor and blade assembly remain functional is a basic requirement.
